The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What players say

Players love the concept and core gameplay, calling it a unique dinosaur shooter. However, the playerbase is tiny, leaving mostly full lobbies of veteran players who dominate newcomers. The game has persistent crash and lag issues, and some find dinosaur controls janky. Supporters praise the developers for still updating the game years after release, including adding private matches.
